🌟 Top 5 Coolest Weapon Addons & How to Install Them! (GMod Guide for Beginners)
Hello GMod fans!
In this guide, I’ll show you 5 awesome weapon addons and teach you how to install any weapon addon step by step! I will also help you fix common problems like missing textures or broken weapons.

I’ll add screenshots to help you — and don’t forget, if this guide helps you, please leave a like or award Steam Points! 😊

🏆 Top 5 Cool Weapon Addons (Examples)
1️⃣ Shrink Ray SWEP
2️⃣ Flamethrower Weapon
3️⃣ Lightning Rod Rifle
4️⃣ Aimbot Gun
5️⃣ Particle Cannon Pistol

(You can update this list anytime with your favorite addons — players love new suggestions!)

Example Screenshot:
Show the weapon in action in GMod — press F12 to take a screenshot in Steam.

📥 How to Install Weapon Addons
Go to the Garry’s Mod Workshop (from Steam).

Search for the weapon you want (type: weapon or SWEP).

Click Subscribe on the addon page.

Screenshot Example:
Show clicking “Subscribe” on a weapon addon page.

Steam will download the addon automatically.

🎮 How to Use New Weapons In-Game
Start Garry’s Mod.

Open the Spawn Menu (press Q).

Go to Weapons tab.

Find your new weapon — click to equip it.

Screenshot Example:
Show the Spawn Menu open with weapons visible.

🛠️ How to Fix Problems
Problem: Weapon has pink/black textures
✅ Solution: Check if the addon needs CS:S content or another pack — install missing content.

Problem: Weapon does not appear in-game
✅ Solution: Make sure addon is enabled (Main Menu → Addons).
✅ Some weapons need a weapon base (example: TFA, ArcCW) — subscribe to required bases.

Problem: Weapon has missing sounds
✅ Solution: Read the Workshop description — sometimes extra sound packs are required.

Screenshot Example:
Show the Addons menu with an addon enabled.

🔄 Keep Your Addons Updated
GMod updates sometimes break old addons.

Check the addon page often — if it says “Updated” you may need to re-subscribe or update.

If a weapon breaks, leave a comment — sometimes the author will fix it!

🎁 Final Tips
Try different addons and mix them together — GMod is all about having fun!
